Paralaminar nucleus volume

MYH7B · rs73905019

What the study found

Who was studied 35,292 European ancestry individuals, 227 African ancestry individuals, 380 South Asian ancestry individuals, 115 East Asian ancestry individuals, 338 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.427 lower (95% confidence interval 0.3-0.55); p = 2 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q11.22 — in an intron of MYH7B.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Paralaminar nucleus volume. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Paralaminar nucleus volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Paralaminar nucleus volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs73905019

What is rs73905019?

rs73905019 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MYH7B gene. Published research associates it with paralaminar nucleus volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs73905019 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs73905019 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biological psychiatry 2024, PMID:37391117. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
